In multiple interviews as a free agent this summer, Dan Henderson expressed an interest in returning to the UFC while at the same time hoping he could defend his Strikeforce belt. However, UFC President Dana White has now confirmed in an interview with 5thRound.com that Henderson is now exclusive to the UFC. News broke this week that Henderson will fight Mauricio "Shogun" Rua in the main event at UFC 139, and White says in signing his new contract with the organization that he will be with the UFC alone. Strikeforce now has just two male Champions left in Middleweight Champ Luke Rockhold and Lightweight Champion Gilbert Melendez.
